Kanch Mandir, Jain temple in Indore, India.
The Kanch Mandir features glass panels and mosaics covering its interior surfaces, including floors, columns, walls, and ceiling, creating multiple reflective patterns throughout.
Sir Seth Hukumchand Jain initiated the construction of this temple in 1903, bringing craftsmen from Jaipur and Iran to work on its detailed glass installations.
During the Sugandh Dashami festival, devotees create intricate mandalas using colored rice powder, while the temple hosts the central Kshamavani forgiveness celebration.
The temple opens daily for visitors who can explore its three floors, though photography inside the building is not permitted due to preservation regulations.
The main sanctuary contains Tirthankara idols positioned between mirrors on both sides, generating an infinite series of reflections in the glass-covered chamber.
